Has anyone brought a bike off eBay Seller KX125a4??

he's offering shipping included in the purchase price, seems a little too good to be true? anyone dealt with him?

Yeah I did on one occasion previously. Forget his name .... will come to me ... but he was an okay seller. Like many he probably bent the truth a little bit but the bike was pretty much as he described.  I'm just not confident the history he was quoting me was exactly correct once I got the bike.  It was an 89 CR 250 and whilst it was in great condition, he was telling me it was owned by a Honda mechanic and there were some things on the bike that left me wondering if that was true.

He was a bit difficult to contact at some times and not a good communicator at others.  If you were buying a mint bike from him for top $$ then maybe be a bit careful as I mentioned above however if you were buying an original restorer then you'd probably be okay.

Good luck :)

Free Shipping from USA to Australia, I would say that wouldn't include taxes when it landed, plus you may need import papers too and quarantine charges will apply as well, I would look into it first.
